Lisa Shea Forums Parakeets Keet Stories and Photos My new Dilute!

Very beautiful! Cash will love her in no time!

Shes beautiful, but shes not a spangle, shes a dilute. Spangles have much more white on each feather with only a tiny outline of color around the edge.

Lol, JP... my buddy Cristina and I talked about it last night... she was right the whole time, I'm going to change the topic name... thanks!

I'm a big fan of dilutes

Your baby looks alot like my Uma, but shes also a clearflight.

Dilute blues are the prettiest color I think

JP... do you want to have some fun guessing the types of my birds?! 0=]

It's up to you.

SURE! I love colors and genetics... can you tell lol

JP and QU: Would you mind doing mine? I would REALLY like to know! Just look at my avatar (and u can't really tell the color of Lemon so much, he's a lime green color all over his body, except for his head and wings, which are all yellow, except for his wings which are cinnamon/greyish striped color.
THANK YOU!!!!!!

Are Lemon's eyes black or red?

From the picks and your description he sounds like a dilute. Does he have any stripes on his head? Are his flight feathers and tail clear (yellow)?

Lime is a dominant pied/ clear-flight. A beautiful one too! Do you know the colors of his parents? He is very similar to my Pearl, who I think *might* be a double-factor dominant pied, but I don't know for sure since I do not know his parents colors and do not plan on breeding him.

I am leaning towards him and Lime being single factor dominant pieds because they have more color than most double factor dominant pieds (yet less than most single factor... so lol)

Oh AyeYoo, she's sooooooooooooooooooo sweet!!!!!!! I just love her to pieces!!!

Thanks Cully's Mom! She's sweet, but the little puppish barks (arcks) if I get near her... but it's all dandy... she's on my shoulder right now!!!!!!!!!
